ABP News-CVoter Punjab Exit Poll 2022: AAP to form Govt?

Will the result day finally end the uncertainty over Punjab’s political future, or a hung assembly spring up unexpected post-poll scenarios?. The Uttar Pradesh Election 2022 was set to be the biggest contest of the year, with UP being the most populous Indian state, having a key to the Hindi heartland. However, Punjab sprung a multi-corner contest unlike any other in the state in recent decades as the internal turmoil in Punjab Congress made the contest wide open. Punjab has had its share of two-cornered contests with the Congress and the Shiromani Akali Dal as the major players. But the fight this year involves the ruling Congress, Arvind Kejriwal and Bhagwant Mann-led Aam Aadmi Party, and Parkash Singh Badal and Sukhbir’s Akali Dal that is fighting in alliance with Mayawati’s Bahujan Samaj Party.The five-corner contest also includes the BJP alliance with former CM Amarinder Singh’s Punjab Lok Congress and Shiromani Akali Dal (Sanyukt), as well as farmer leaders’ political outfits ‘Sanyukt Samaj Morcha‘ and ‘Sanyukt Sangharsh Party’.
